A gummy includes an inner portion, a formulation having a dispersion including a plurality of liposomal vesicles contained in the inner portion; and an outer portion which surrounds the inner portion. The formulation includes an active ingredient including cannabidiol (CBD), phospholipid contained in the liposomal vesicles, and a optionally added coating material, the CBD being incorporated within the liposomal vesicles. A method of making such gummy having the CBD formulation in the inner portion thereof includes setting up a central filling apparatus having a shell syrup hopper, a central filling hopper, and a manifold branch and nozzle mechanism; filling the shell syrup hopper with the base material; filling the central filling hopper with the CBD formulation; dispensing the base material and CBD formulation in the manifold branch and nozzle mechanism, and further into the gummy mold; and extracting the gummy from the gummy mold.

A composition containing (D)-β-hydroxybutyric acid (D-BHB), (D)-β-hydroxyvaleric acid (D-BHV), and (D)-1,3 butanediol (D-1,3BD) is disclosed. Examples include a composition of between 85% and 25% D-BHB, with 15% to 75% D-1,3BD where the proportion of D-BHB to D-BHV acid may be between 1.0 to 0 and 0.7 to 0.3. Exemplary compositions may be incorporated into food, supplement, and beverage products.

Gummy dosage forms comprising gummy compositions for nutritional supplementation, methods for providing nutritional supplementation, and kits comprising gummy compositions for nutritional supplementation are disclosed. Such gummy compositions for nutritional supplementation may provide improved patient compliance relative to non-gummy compositions for nutritional supplementation. These gummy compositions can be used to administer one or more vitamins, minerals, or trace elements.

Shown herein is a nutritional supplement containing apple cider vinegar (ACV), including compositions, formulations, and combinations of ingredients in the ACV nutritional supplement, as well as processes for manufacturing these supplements. The nutritional supplement can include ACV, a gelling agent such as pectin or gelatin, an oligosaccharide, a disaccharide, and water.

An edible floating balloon composition and method of making the same. The edible floating balloon composition includes blending water with a hydrocolloid such as methylcellulose and xanthan gum to form a gelling solution. The gelling solution is vacuum packed in a container and refrigerated until the hydrocolloid is fully bloomed. An isomalt melt is then prepared. The gelling solution and a liquid glucose are mixed to form a gellification solution. The gellification solution is tempered into the isomalt melt to form an edible balloon taffy. One or more of an ascorbic acid and a citric acid are mixed with the edible balloon taffy. Optionally, a flavoring element is added to the edible balloon taffy. A pressurized gas may be injected into the edible balloon taffy to form a balloon of a desired size. The pressurized gas may be helium so that the balloon may float.

Colored hard coated edible products characterized by minimal appearance defects in the coating are disclosed. Color and flavor are in substantially separated regions of the coating. Methods of making such products are also disclosed.
